Fabric Fun–Resist the Urge to Dishwash!!

By

Using our May Partner Stamps, Debi created this WOW video project.   Read on to see it...




I love fabric so much more than I like washing dishes.. so a new use for dish detergent is for me. I love making my own decorated fabric for many purposes. Well when  I heard that you could use dish detergent to mask or create a frisket on fabric, I was sold. This detergent is brushed on and when dry keeps the paint from coloring the fabric. So I wanted to use some of my AlteredPage products to see what I could accomplish… Please I hope you enjoy my video. 

Supplies:
muslin (on hand)
Splash Inks 
Paint Brushes (on hand)
Acrylic stamp squares
Heart stamps from the Rubber Stamp Depot available at AlteredPages
StaZon Ink Pad
thick dishwashing detergent
bowl
water (to rinse)
Iron to press with
airbrush (optional)
dye fixative ( on hand)





See you next month!

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
